All Southbend equipment is adjusted at the factory, however, burner air shutters and pilot heights should be checked at installation and adjusted if necessary. Check type of gas on serial plate in the compartment below the oven.
- Page 11 INSTALLATION EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES: Canopies are set over ranges, ovens, etc., for ventilation purposes. It is recommended that a canopy extend 6" past appliance and be located 6' 6" from the floor. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45 degrees or more with the horizontal. This prevents dripping grease and facilitates collecting the run-off grease in a drip pan, usually installed with a filter.

OPERATION WARMING OVEN: The oven is heated by the flue products from the broiler. To operate the broiler burners just to heat the oven, when the broiler is not in operation, is inefficient and not recommended. When the optional electric element is installed in this oven, it can be used when the broiler is not operating, or to increase the temperature of this oven when the broiler burners are operating. -
Page 17: Cooking Hints
COOKING HINTS Due to the speed of this infra-red broiler, broiling times will be reduced and techniques may require some modification. For most broiling of steaks, chops, etc., the burners should be operated on "HI" and the degree of internal rareness and surface condition can be controlled by raising and lowering the rack mechanism. -
